Jamie Engel's Reviews > All or Nothing

This is book #2 in Lo’s Denver Bandits Baseball series and I like this one more than the first. Lo has really found her groove with her writing with this one.

This story follows Delilah and Cruz, who are best friends. Delilah is a baker and owner of Buns n’ Roses, who is struggling with trusting others after the ending of her last relationship. Cruz is a MLB player, who is still battling some grief over losing his younger brother. Cruz and Lilah are inseparable, where one goes the other follows. What Lilah does not know is that her bestie's love not only extends to her pastries but also to her. Cruz does not know what to do, until Lilah starts giving hints of feelings toward him.

The story has equals parts of funny and sad moments, as well as spicy moments. I think Lo did a wonderful job of using flashbacks to move the story forward and build a strong relationship foundation.
Cruz and Delilah are 100% made for each other and I could not get enough of their relationship. I love the time at which they came into each other’s lives and became each other’s support systems.
Cruz is such a cinnamon roll and I am absolutely here for it. He would truly do anything for Delilah and it was the sweetest. And the things that would come out of his mouth….phew. Lo def upped her spice in this one.

Overall: 4
Spice: 3
